Hi All
Decided finally to let this one go as really need to slim down the collection so offering a very nice piece that you will not come across every day. Is a Graham Nash Signature Martin 000-40Q2GN from 2003. Is solid mahogany with particularly nice quilted top. Sounds beautiful, nice and mellow just like a solid mahogany should. Has been well cared for and whilst not in mint condition I would describe as very good to excellent, around 9/10 IMHO and has not been abused in any way. Is nicely set up and comes with push-fit, top end Martin hard case.

Price $2800 SGD flat (no trades thanks), which is excellent value for a limited run, top end Martin. These are better and use higher quality woods than the production signature models. Come see for yourself…
